Father God, thank you for another day to learn and change in accordance with your will. You know all our struggles and the plans you have for us and you do test our faith through trials. With you at our side we can turn trials into tribulations.

Father God, shine in the life of C, SHINE. Shine in all the circumstances he finds himself in so that he pays attention. I lift him up to you and pray a hedge of thorns around him.

I pray for D. For a softening of his heart and for the opening of his eyes. Holy Father God, have mercy on him for he hides from you and is so lost, although he does not know it.

My Father in Heaven, I ask this in the name of Christ. AMEN.
